DIONDAY, FEB. ‘ill, 1949 Farmers’ Week Of even more than usual importance are rhe annual meetings of our farm organizations which take place in Charlottetown this week. The sub- iect of marketing will loom large in the discus- sions," which open Tuesday morning with an ad- dress by Mr. McSween, director of marketing for the Nova Scotia Department of Agriculture, and which may result in some concrete plan of cen- tralized or ca-operotive marketing. “' The meetings of the Federation of Agricul- ture on Thursday will cover a wide field of activi- -ties, ‘concluding with o public meeting in the evening at which the guest speaker will be Mr. Colin Groff, secretary of the Canadian Federa- tion, who will discuss food prices and their re- lotion to both consumer and producer. All the form organizations are represented in the Federation of Agriculture, and for this rea- l0l1 the question of reorganizing the Federation is of special interest. it is proposed that this re- organization be on the basis of two regional groups per County, or, alternatively, along the lines of the Nova Scotia Federation, which calls for a system of regional groups made up of five or six school districts, with County organizations appointing their representatives to tho Provin- cial board of the Federation. Advantages are seen in each of these systems, and the question If their suitability to this Province should pro- voke much interesting discussion. Our citizens will ioin wholeheartedly in the welcome which will be extended to the out-of- town delegates, and will follow the reports of the proceedings with keen interest. Establishing A Basie iierd The Taxation Division of the Department of Notional Revenue, Ottawa, has recently revised its directive with respect to income tax payable by farmers who are producing saleable livestock or livestock products. The new directive (No. 230) explains how what is called a basic herd, for cattle, horses, sheep or swine, may be estab- lished. ' The principle of a basic herd, says the De- partment, presupposes a permanent herd and continuity of operation. Provided the producer was producing livestock in i947 or i948 and makes application for the establishment of a basic herd before April 30, i949, such a herd may be established for taxation purposes. Applica- tions should be made to the District income Tax Office, on a special basic herd application form obtainable at such offices. The basic herd will be determined on the number of mature animals (cattle-three years old, horses—4 years old, sheep and swine-one year old) which the owner is able to establish as having been acquired by various specified means. The numbers of the basic herd may be increased or decreased in subsequent years; and any taxpayer who has previous reported income on an accrual basis, but whose inventory has been valued at less than the fair market value, may, by means of a special formula, have a basic herd determined. Complete information with regard to all aspects of basic herd estab- lishment is available from the District income Tax Office. - Newfoundland Currency The Ottawa staff correspondent of The Globe and Mail gives some timely information about the silver coinage and bank notes in cir- ;culation in Newfoundland. All this money will 'be included in Canada's currency after March ‘Bl, under an amendment to,the Currency Act '_now before the Federal Parliament. ' This will pimeon, among other things, that the diminutive - silver 5-cen-t piece, which went out of circulation some time ago, will again make its appearance in Canada, although not in any great numbers, ‘and only for a limited period of time. According to the latest figures, Newfound- land's total coinage circulation amounts to $2,857,986. Recently made coins with a face 'value of $9,300 were struck for the Island at the "Royal Canadian mint at Ottawa, yielding a profit to the Newfoundland Government of $5,000. . The silver content of all Newfoundland coins being higher than in Canadian coins, it follows ‘that, as the Newfoundland silver currency is withdrawn and melted down, there will be a mar- gin of silver which will be credited to the Domin- ion treasury. There is also some_Newfoundland paper money in circulation somewhere, with an estimated total value of $12,000, and this will become an asset of the Federal Government in duo course. These bills, or most of them, are be- lieved to be in the hands of collectors. But for the next year or two, Newfoundland coins may be expagted to make their appearance from time to time in the Canadian supply of "petty cash“ and loose change. a Twelve Years To Learn There is much common sense in the follow- ing excerpts from o speech by Mr. J. H. Black- more, (Social Crerlit-Lethbridge) in the House of ‘Commons lost week. "Mr. Speaker, there hos appeared recently ' during the debate a noticeable tendency to quota the speeches of Colonel George Drew mode in ’ i937, when ~ha was without experience, against the s aches of the leader of the opposition (Mr. Dmvi of i049 otter twelve years of experience, much of lf-gopailirs premiorof Ontario in the administration of the affairs of that province. ‘ “A motif Ordinary intelligence and the NFQQ loch can‘ learn o lot in twelve g) years. l judge from the way the loader of the op- position departs himself in this house that he is a man of ordinary intelligence, and that he has the honesty to face facts. - “Let us not be surprised then if the dan- guage which he uses today concerning Dominion- Provincioi relations is quite different from the language which he used when ho was without ex- perience twelve years ago. "Let thermembers of the present party in power take over the administration of one of the Provinces of this Dominion, and face realities as they are in Canada and as they have been dur- ing the last ten years. They will be different men entirely from the men they arenow. "They will have made a good marry import- cnt discoveries that everyone in Canada ought to make concerning the responsibilities which rest upon the provinces, and the financial difficulties which the provinces experience in endeavoririg to discharge them."

I hove looked at. the plain school buildings. their cramped location! and their lack of proper equip- ment, I have thought of the poor salaries teachers got and have felt that. the teaching profession is not. getting its deserved plaoo in Our society; that the education of our children is not thought of an any great m tier. Bu! recently X am finding o i that. people in other places also lack appreciation of the value of the education of their children. Listen to this quotation from [he book, "O11! Chlldfdll BIO Cheated" by Dr. Fine. educational editor of the New York Times in which he describes t.he primary school conditions tn the United Slates: “Our school plant is dis- grnceiully and perilously ~ inade- quate. Often lliere are 58 or 60 children crowded into rooms built. for 30 or 35. Also our school plant is in largo purl. antiquated, dilapid- ated, insaiiltary. Our teachers have developed a grave degree of din- conteiil. ‘Ifhe average teacher la paid about. $40 a week, lees than the average truck driver gets. Mul- titucli-s of teachers work part time at. other jobs. Some nre dressmak- ers. ivnitresses. ssleswomen. filling- station attendants. dltehdiggers. bartenders. Many teachers feel un- nppreclated. They feel cut. off from the companionship and oonfldenca of their fellow citizens. Since 1940 more than 350.000 of them have abandoned teaching. Nearly 8,000 schools have been closed for lock of teachers. Greer numbers of un- qualified. sub-standard teachers have had to be rilred. At present each you, neatly 20 percent. of our teachers are new and wholly inex- perienced. Millions of our children are threatened with an Inferior education." who could imagine that this de- scribes che common school system in the richest and what may- be supposed to be the mosrpprogree- slve nation in the world today; a nation that is scattering its billions like rain across the parched fields of Europe, and hoping to spread it: culture to the ends of the earth! lt/is some cold oomfon to find that other countries also are back- ward in this matter of primary ed- ucation. ~ _ _ It ia_ true and something to be thankful for that conditions in thin Province have improved.
